    By default, F-C2 fire dampers are only supplied with spring loaded activation, optionally with micro switch. In case of fire, the fire damper closes automatically when the temperature of the air in the duct reaches 72°C. The F-C2 damper closes after the melting of the thermal fuse. After the closing of the damper blade, it is mechanically locked in the closed position and can only be opened manually, which requires access of the maintenance staff into the duct.

    Accessory CBR-C2 and fire resistance class (EI60S, EI90S and EI120S) do not affect the pressure drop and A-weighted total discharged sound power level. The pressure drop and A-weighted total discharged sound power level depend on the nominal diameter of the F-C2 and air flow volume at different duct pressures.

  • Page 31: Operation Manual

    F-C2 Operation Manual Warning: Both sides of F-C2 blades are spring loaded in the open position and are closing very quick. To avoid injury, make sure to keep the blades movement area clear while manipulating with F-C2. The fire damper is ready for installation when its blades are in open position. The blade position, if using a H1 version, is indicated by an end switch, which indicates when pushed the damper blades’...
  • Page 32 • Check of the end switch indicating the open and closed position, correction and record if needed • Check if the damper is moved in its standard position. The F-C2 damper’s position is correct when, after the closure, the blades are in between the planes forming the outside surface of the wall – the ideal position is when the blade is in the middle between these planes.
